Market SummaryAndItsAssessmentfor Development: • The market is flooded. Focusing on the singles, couples, newlyweds and families we avoid partly the consequences of the global crisis. One of the main opportunity that we have is the growing Baltic economy. The trend European wide seems to be providing the low cost tickets with not such a strong focus on the quality service and that is why we would provide affordable tickets with a better quality than our competitors.
We need to act quickly because the Baltic area provides many oppurtunities to big companies as it does to newly established companies. Goals and Objectives: • Making our airline recognizable. • Doing business based on loyalty towards customers. • Being the most desired airline for this segment.
Strategy: • Making contracts with travel agencies in order to make customers choose our company. • Cooperating with most preferred vacation destinations and resorts, hotels, spots in general also diversifying into airport shuttles. Making the vacations as convenient as possible for our customers. • Increasing the age of children (0-9) capable of getting the free tickets.
Making contracts with banks so our customers can get discounts or free tickets with their miles. • Having our own SkyBridge Club cards so all our customers can benefit from them. • We use wet lease and we own some of the airplanes. • HQ in the country with the best regulations and taxations, Base airport in Lithuania.

Financial management • We have one boeing 737 that costs 32 million euros and one tupolev 154m that costs 45 million euros • We wet lease our other planes but we are planning to own all of our planes so if some routes become unpopuler or in off seasons we can lease our planes to other companies for extra profit. • Our starting capital is 100 million euros.
Our investors are: • 3 business man from lithuania and latvia who want to improve baltic economy • 1 business man from germany who have good relationship with latvia and wants to invest his money to an airline company • Beside things we mentioned in our 5-10 years plan our financial goal is earn the money that we spent when we established this company in 10 years and after that our goal is catching a steady increase of capital.

We are planning to make an application to star alliance in 10 years. Our first goal is becoming star alliance silver member and after that become gold member. If we become a memeber of that alliance it will reduce our airport costs dramatically. Of course our customers will benefit from this membership by gaining priorities in airports.
